Our pick for the best laptop for most people is on sale. A 13-inch MacBook Air with an M3 chip, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage is down to a record low.

Note: All newly added or updated deals have been marked with a ✨.

Apple has updated RAM across its MacBooks, and if you don't pay attention, you may end up wasting hundreds of dollars.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales mark one of the best times to do so. Apple’s M3 MacBook Air is one of your best options in a thin, super portable form that’ll handle anything you need thanks to its powerful M3 chip.

It's true that if you're shopping straight from the Apple Store, you won't see any special deals ahead of Nov. 29. On Black Friday proper, Apple is giving out gift cards up to $200 on eligible purchases of iPhones, MacBooks, AirPods, and more.

Amazon and Best Buy are battling for the lowest price on Apple's best-selling M3 MacBook Air with 512GB of storage.

Walmart is now discounting the 13-inch MacBook Air with M1 even further, allowing you to get this Apple Intelligence-ready laptop for just $599.99 (originally $699.99). This is a crazy discount on an already discounted laptop and the lowest price we've tracked. When my colleague Lance Ullanoff wrote about it in March, it was only $699.99.

Early Black Friday Cyber Monday deals are starting to drop, and several new Apple MacBooks —including ones that hit the shelves only a few weeks ago—are available for hundreds less. Translation? Now is hands-down the most opportune time to upgrade to a new laptop.

Apple’s new M4 chips are undoubtedly a one-way ticket to enhanced performance across the board on MacBook devices, especially the rumored M4 MacBook Air reportedly slated for 2025 - but Amazon’s Black Friday sale has introduced some major discounts for M3 MacBooks, and I have to admit, they’ve piqued my interest.
